Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox

This issue happens whenever I use Yahoo! Mail to read a message, but it has crashed for no apparent reason on other sites that I cannot recall. I ran FireFox from a terminal. Here is my output:

(gecko:7165): Pango-WARNING **: failed to create cairo scaled font, expect ugly output. the offending font is 'Times New Roman 12'
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Thanks for any assistance.

Hi,

please submit the crash report by (double) clicking on it (e.g. using gnome file manager). Otherwise, we won't be able to process it efficiently. The .crash files can be found in the /var/crash directory.

Thanks,
